Winter.
Caleb:
I used to live in the snow belt in NY and get hammered with lake effect snow.
I had to drive through the worst weather at 4 AM to go to the local TV station and type up the little scrolling "closed schools" graphic.
Like every single school and local business in the tri-county area would be closed and I still went to work every day in that crap (for very little money).
Then I had to drive to Syracuse for my other job through some of the worst winter weather ever.
Now I live in NE NY where it is cold as hell but there is less snow. I can walk to work if I want to.
If I don't have to drive in it then I am fine with winter weather.
If I get enough sleep my immune system is amazing and I hardly ever get sick.
Beats hot summer weather hands down! You can get in out of the snow and get warmed up right away.

39 tomorrow morning, but supposedly there's a change coming through at lunch-time and the afternoon will only be mid-20s. Bless you, you bizarre and magnificent Melbourne micro-climate!

Are there a lot of Aussies on this forum? That's odd and intriguing. And cool!
22°F right now, going down to -3° tonight. Sob.
One good thing that I've noticed though, is the result of all the plowing is a veritable mountain of snow at the end of most parking lots and scattered about most neighborhoods. I'm going to stock up on good warm clothing, and hollow out the top to make a snow-mountain fort. With an arsenal of snowballs a la Calvin and Hobbes. :D
Caleb:
My friends in college once taped themselves crashing into those parking lot snow mountains with shopping carts.

Ooh, I bet I could get my idiot brother and his equally insipid friends to partake. :evil:
